Abstract
An apparatus and method for mounting an accessory article in a vehicle interior using a clip to which the article is attached and which is mounted through an aperture in a vehicle body part. Deformable force applying ribs are disposed between the clip and the accessory and are deformed upon tightening of the fastener drawing the clip and the accessory closer together. The ribs exert a biasing force against the clip to prevent movement of the clip and the accessory with respect to the vehicle body part while drawing the clip into fixed, non-movable engagement with the vehicle body part. The ribs may be integrally molded as part of the accessory or formed on a separate member mountable between the accessory and the clip.
